Nomenclature

Substrate or adsorbent: surface onto which adsorption can occur.example: catalyst surface, activated carbon, alumina

Adsorbate: molecules or atoms that adsorb onto the substrate.example: nitrogen, hydrogen, carbon monoxide, water

Adsorption: the process by which a molecule or atom adsorb onto a surface of substrate.Coverage: a measure of the extent of adsorption of a specie onto a surface

Exposure: a measure of the amount of gas the surface had been exposed to ( 1 Langmuir = 10-6 torr s)

Types of Adsorption Modes

Physical adsorption orphysisorption

Chemical adsorption orchemisorption

Bonding between molecules andsurface is by weak van der Waalsforces.

Chemical bond is formed betweenmolecules and surface.

Characteristics of Chemi- and Physisorptions

Chemisorption

virtually unlimited range

wide range (40-800 kJmol-1)

marked difference forbetween crystal planes

often dissociative andirreversible in many cases

limited to a monolayer

activated process

Physisorption

near or below Tbp of adsorbate(Xe < 100 K, CO2 < 200 K)

heat of liquifaction (5-40 kJmol-1)

independent of surface geometry

non-dissociative andreversible

multilayer occurs often

fast, non-activated process

Note: f() is a function of surface coverage special case of Langmuir adsorption f() = 1-

E(), the activation energy is also affected by surface coverage

Sticking Coefficient

Potential energy (E) for adsorption is only dependent on distancebetween molecule and surface

P.E. is assumed to be independent of:• angular orientation of molecule• changes in internal bond angles and lengths• position of the molecule along the surface

The Brunauer-Emmett-Teller Isotherm

BET isotherm

where: n is the amount of gas adsorbed at P nm is the amount of gas in a monolayer P0 is the saturation pressure n at P = P0

C is a constant defined as:

H1 and HL are the adsorption enthalpy of first and subsequent layers

BET Isotherm

Assumptions• adsorption takes place on the lattice and molecules stay put,• first monolayer is adsorbed onto the solid surface and each layers can start before another is finished,• except for the first layer, a molecule can be adsorbed on a given site in a layer (n) if the same site also exists in (n-1) layer,• at saturation pressure (P0), the number of adsorbed layers is infinite (i.e., condensation), • except for the first layer, the adsorption enthalpy (HL) is identical for each layers.
